I'm in Mexico and moving further to the south next month, the Lord willing. Praise God, I'm getting further and further away from Calif. and it's pettiness. You libs can really pat yourselves on the back for electing Jerry Brown. He's a real winner. And Mrs. Pelosi. Screaming for a "mainstream" Supreme Court Justice. Oh yea, now that they lost, they want "mainstream". Get ready to eat some humble pie, Nancy. You ain't gonna get "mainstream".

sigpicThe truth is that if Israel would lay down their arms there would be no more Israel, and if the Arabs would lay down their arms there would be no more war.

Nope. But the majority is.
Anyway, if California breaks off, as it was mentioned [prophecy?], it won't make a difference what you are.
Unless you believe in the rapture.

Your race bait question about sanctuary cities being for "MEXICANS" is still moot.

Six states accounted for 59% of unauthorized immigrants in 2014: California, Texas, Florida, New York, New Jersey and Illinois. But some state populations had changed since 2009, despite the stable trend at the national level. From 2009 to 2014, the unauthorized immigrant population decreased in seven states: Alabama, California, Georgia, Illinois, Kansas, Nevada and South Carolina. In all of them, the decline was due to a decrease in unauthorized immigrants from MEXICO.

Apprehensions of Mexican migrants at U.S. borders reach near-historic low

The number of Mexican migrants apprehended at U.S. borders in fiscal 2015 dropped to the lowest levels in nearly 50 years, according to U.S. Border Patrol data. This change comes after a period in which net migration of Mexicans to the U.S. had fallen to lows not seen since the 1940s.

This decline in apprehensions coincides with recently released estimates by Mexico’s top statistical agency, which show that the rate at which Mexicans migrated to the U.S. and other countries – including both legal and unauthorized immigrants – has held steady for the past five years, after a dramatic drop during the Great Recession.

Apprehensions of Mexican migrants declined to near-historic lows last fiscal year, which ended Sept. 30, 2015, according to data released earlier in the year by the U.S. Border Patrol. (U.S. border apprehension data are commonly used as an indicator of the flows of migrants entering the U.S. illegally, though they are only a partial measure.) In fiscal 2015, the Border Patrol made 188,122 apprehensions of Mexican migrants at U.S. borders, an 18% decline from the previous year – and the lowest number of apprehensions on record since 1969, when there were 159,376 apprehensions. The decline suggests unauthorized immigration flows from Mexico could be falling.

Looks like what we're doing so far is having a significant impact, without a nice expensive wall.

Of course, apprehensions may be going down because they're getting better sneaking in. Or maybe a lot went home before Trump builds his wall.

A wise and frugal government, which shall restrain men from injuring one another, which shall leave them otherwise for to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned. This is the sum of good government. - Thomas Jefferson.
